Pretty soon, Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO) UK may not have any execs left. Latest to go is central marketing services director Lawrence Merritt, becoming marketing director at London-based photo sharing and printing site PhotoBox after nearly nearly five years with the portal (his LinkedIn profile actually says he’s becoming commercial director). An emailed release said the site had so far this year got 10 million euros (£7 million) and would soon be rebranded.
